Well, what I'm suggesting is that the current situation is a bit of a hack and I'm proposing (what I think is) a better way to meet the goals. But just so I'm understanding where you're coming from, what is the purpose of using the Tcl VFS interface if not for running out of a starpack? (or other similar mechanisms). You seem to be saying that the Tcl VFS is good, but that starpacks are uninteresting, or am I getting this wrong? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
